      Right, except there's on little problem, boss.

      That's Prince Boss to you!

      What? Making a decision without me? Who does she think she is?

      The Queen?

      You simpering simpleton!

      Silencio!

      No! I won't let go!...

    Finished reading Peter Heather's Empires and Barbarians, a quite wonderful examination of the changes of first-millennium Europe. Moving on to Anna Comnena's Alexiad (primary source woot).

      Please have mercy on me this is just to make my little box that comes up when you hover over my name look a bit nicer. Going with that Byzantine theme, and I can't forget those Turks, now can I?
